Horatio Alger Award

Horatio Alger, Jr. (January 13, 1832 – July 18, 1899) was a 19th-century American author who wrote over 130 dime novels. Many of his works have been described as rags to riches stories, illustrating how down-and-out boys might be able to achieve the American dream of wealth and success through hard work, courage, determination, and concern for others. He is noted as a significant figure in the history of American cultural and social ideals. (Accessed from Wikepedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horatio_Alger)

Also, I can indentify with the Horatio Alger Association of Distinguished Americans. Founded in 1947, the Horatio Alger Association of Distinguished Americans continues to fulfill its mission of honoring the achievements of outstanding individuals in our society who have succeeded in spite of adversity and of encouraging young people to pursue their dreams through higher education.The Association brings the “Horatio Alger Heroes” of today together with those of tomorrow by bestowing the Horatio Alger Award each year and by awarding more than $8.5 million annually in college scholarships to young people. Horatio Alger Scholars have faced challenges and realize that a college education is the avenue to a better future. The Association also provides its scholarship recipients with financial aid counseling, and internship and job placement assistance. (Accessed from the Horatio Alger website http://www.horatioalger.org/)

I first became aware of the Horatio Alger Award while working at Bear Stearns, the investment bank headquartered in New York City. Mr. Alan "Ace" Greenberg was presented the Horatio Alger Award in 1997. "When Greenberg was 31, two major events happened—one would put him on top of the financial world; the other had the ability to bring it all crashing down. Greenberg was named a partner of Bear Stearns, and he was diagnosed with a cancer that had less than a 50 percent survival rate. Greenberg faced both challenges with his usual courage and confidence. He underwent surgery and began months of convalescence. For the next 12 years he had checkups at the Mayo Clinic every six months." I can relate to Mr. Alan "Ace" Greenberg, the legendary CEO and Chairman of Bear Stearns (now Chairman of the Executive Committee) who overcame much adversity in his life to become such a personal and professional success. Actually, I can relate to the adversity part of his life. Also, there are many household names who have achieved the Horatio Alger Award.

Likewise, Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man has experienced considerable adversity, including some significant setbacks associated with his severe lawn mower accident. I have been inspired by the many life stories of the Horatio Alger Heroes and Scholars. I hope to be presented the Horatio Alger Award and join a great team of man and women who overcame adversity often times for the betterment of mankind.

Babette

I developed a passion for disabled and challenged persons at a young age. As a child, I had a dog named Babette who developed a condition called "floating kneecaps." In essence, her kneecaps would slip out of place, and she would drag her legs or walk only on her front paws. Furthermore, Babette had a very sweet personality. She loved everyone. Furthermore, I reached out to Babette recognizing some of her physical limitations and admiring her many positive characteristics. Unfortunately, Babette was killed by a car during a visit by one of my relatives who let Babette out to get some fresh-air. I did not learn about this until it was too late. It was a very sad day because Babette embodied a spirit of innocence and love for all animals and people. Babette was a wonderful little doggy.

After my lawn mower accident, I had a series of surgeries to care for the partial amputation of my left foot. Often times, I thought about my little brave doggy Babette who made such a profound impact on everyone who met her. I gained some inspiration and strength from that little doggy.

In the spirit of Babette, I have developed a passion for disabled persons and disabled animals. Actually, I am now a disabled person.  Also, I am very grateful for all the people who have made contributions to address the needs of people with disabilities. Citizen Kane had Rosebud. Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man had Babette.

Tripod the Dog

Tripod the Dog (sm) is the first yard safety (green) super hero doggy in the history of the world.  I created Tripod the Dog shortly after giving birth to Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man.

Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man (sm) seeks to adopt a faithful sidekick – a three-legged dog amputee who survived a lawn mower accident. The doggy will be called Tripod the Dog. We will work together to promote yard safety. With the addition of Tripod (sm), I want to illustrate that lawn mower accidents impact animals as well. The doggy amputee offers a great vehicle to introduce children and adults alike to the amputee community, plus Tripod is a main attraction. Tripod will sometimes act as a photographer to document the yard safety campaign. Furthermore, through a pet adoption, I get to save the life of a pooch that might otherwise be terminated.  Tripod will be a great dog sending a very important message about both amputees and safety.  Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man seeks assistance from the various pet adoption organizations in helping him locate Tripod the Dog.

It is amazing how Richard Mudrinich (creator of Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man, Tripod the Dog, etc.), who experienced a traumatic lawnmower accident over two decades ago, has been the catalyst and inspiration for so many green industry innovations and yard safety developments, including a trade association name and mascot.  I have even promoted pet adoption and rescue, which inspired the trade group.  Thank you!  You are welcome!

Fashion

I first posted to my blog about fashion on January 8, 2005. It is a shame that I cannot execute any of my ideas because of trying to survive day-to-day.

Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man (sm) prepares for the fashion runway. I lived in New York City for a decade, and I made some friends in fashion. I have designed the Rescue Rick Fashion Collection™ of fashion products to give people a wardrobe that communicates their concerns for yard safety. I want to strut my stuff on the catwalk as a super hero super model (laugh). I am in the process of trying to get on the fashion list at fashion shows throughout the world in New York City. I view these venues as a critical opportunities to communicate yard safety awareness and leverage these highly covered and promoted media extravaganzas. There are about 100,000 lawn mower accidents and the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission reports that emergency rooms treat about 400,000 outdoor garden-tool-related accidents in the United States each year. I want to the walk the runway at with hopes to significantly reduce these painstaking statistics and keep people whole and save.

In essence, I want to try a few different approaches in getting the attention of the general public, so they will think twice before they cut the grass. Lawn mower accidents happen in a split-second, often resulting in a life-altering outcome that sometimes includes amputation. I learned this from first-hand experience when I amputated part of my left foot while cutting the grass. Also, I think that there is a real market for grass cut fashion™. I envision millions of people who demand a neat and stylish wardobe to wear while manicuring their lawn. It makes cutting the grass more fun and exciting. Furthermore, the Rescue Rick Fashion Collection™ presents a constant reminder of the importance of adhering to yard safety procedures. I want people to think about my altered left foot, so it does not happen to them.  Think before you cut.  It hurts™. 

Also, Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man (sm) proposes the establishment of the Amputee Fashion Show™, if this has not been done already. The event will showcase clothes and items designed by amputees and modeled by amputees. The Rescue Rick Fashion Collection™ will be featured as well.

Think before you cut. It hurts. Be yard safe.™

Birth of Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man (Limerick)

By Richard Mudrinich

There once was a man
Who was a grass-cutting fan.
He cut-off his big toe
Screaming oh no!
And hence was born Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man.

The Chant

I am not a Buddhist. Buddhism is practiced by about a half billion people around the world. I am trying several different to create yard safety awareness. Thank you for your consideration.

The aim of Buddhist practice is to end the cycle of rebirth called samsara, by awakening the practitioner to the realization of true reality, the achievement of liberation (nirvana). To achieve this, one should purify and train the mind and act according to the laws of karma, of cause and effect: perform positive actions, and positive results will follow. Accordingly, negative deeds have negative consequences. A Buddhist chant is a form of musical verse or incantation. In Buddhism, chanting is the traditional means of preparing the mind for meditation.

Here is the Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man Chant:

Yard yard yard yard yard yard yard yard yard safety.
Grass grass grass grass grass grass grass grass grass safety.
Blade blade blade blade blade blade blade blade blade safety.
Tool tool tool tool tool tool tool tool tool safety.
People people people people people people people people safety.
Animal animal animal animal animal animal animal animal safety.
Aware aware aware aware aware aware aware aware aware safety. 
Rescue Rick Rescue Rick Rescue Rick.
Safe safe safe safe safe safe safe safe safe.
Safe safe safe safe safe safe safe safe safe.

Reflexology

Reflexology is a form of ancient Chinese medicine involving treatment by massage of reflex areas in the feet. Every part of the feet corresponds to a part of the body with the left foot representing the left side of the body and the right foot, the right side. An imaginary line halfway down the foot corresponds to the waistline, with organs in the upper part of the body having their reflex areas in the upper part of the foot and the organs in the lower part of the body, in the lower part. Thus, the reflexes of the feet are arranged to form a map of the body.

I amputated my left big toe due to a severe lawnmower accident. The reflexology map of the foot illustrates that the big toe, for example, is considered a reflex area for the head. I lost my left big toe. Some people think that I might have lost my mind because of my obessive compulsive drive to create yard safety awareness. I might have lost part of my mind. Actually, for a few months after my big toe amputation, there was sometimes a disconnect with my ability to think - including my memory. Nonetheless, I have not lost my will to find a cure for yard accidents and to create awareness so that other individuals and families do not have to endure such a traumatic experience.

I will continue to monitor the mind-body connection between my left big toe stump site and my left brain. Also, I will check to see if my right brain has advanced since my right big toe is now compensating for the lack of my left big toe. Indeed, I am fascinated by this ironic phenomenon between the big toe (lack of big toe) and the brain.

Father of Characters

Richard Mudrinich is a father as well - a father and pioneer of various yard safety characters, products, and services. His nickname is Mud. Some people think that he is backwards, yet he is not Dum(b). He is Mud - Man of Unexplained Desire.

Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man (Richard T. Mudrinich) is the father and inventor of yard (garden grass grounds landscaping lawn mowing turf) safety footwear, including boots, galoshes, overshoes, and shoes. He is the father of yard safety educational concepts, tools, and venues, including apparel, artwork, coloring and activity books, comic books, games, media, software, etc.

Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man has given birth to a family of characters to educate and entertain folks on his yard safety awareness message. It all started with Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man after Mud had a severe lawn mower accident that resulted in the partial amputation of his left foot. Next, Tripod the Dog become the faithful sidekick of Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man. Tripod has three legs after experiencing a yard accident as well. Furthermore, MowBoVatar was born as an ambassador to the technology communities and venues as part robot and part avatar programmed with the mission to broadcast the yard safety message. The Twin Blades were introduced to represent the economic, environmental, and humanitarian challenges that exist between commerce, health, and public interest with regards to the fragile balance of saving the people versus saving the company. Army Armadillo was born to highlight the need for personal protective equipment. Toxy Turfy advocates yard chemical safety. Shaky focuses on health and machine vibration concerns. Zilch is a number man who keeps count of yard accidents and dreams of the number zero when the goal of zero yard accidents is finally achieved. There is still work that needs to be done. Moreover, Mud is the father of Yard Safety Crusaders - a growing group of concerned citizens around the world who want to communicate the yard safety message.

In addition, Mud is a serial social adventurer and father of festive informative characters. While in college, Mud created Captain Junk Food and the Four Food Groups to promote healthy nutrition and a balanced diet.

Furthermore, Mud is Richard Mudrinich as well - probably the biggest most complex character of them all. Think. Dream. Put your head in the clouds. Think some more. Be whatever character you want to be. Be yourself first. Live.

Father of Yard Footwear and Apparel

I am the #inventor and #father of the #lawn #lawncare #yard #footwear and #apparel concept. I was the primary #caregiver of my #mom for over 15 years; I could not advance my concept. Also, to complicate matters, I developed some serious chronic health issues of my own.

In the meantime, several corporations and a few startups have created yard #shoes and #apparel. I do not appreciate other people and companies using the phrase yard shoes and apparel and acting like it was their idea. It is painful to watch a company get the needed resources to execute my vision and then pretend that it was their idea. #RIPMom #MyIdea #NotGivingUp

I seek to work with #ethical and #moral people and organizations to advance my overall mission and vision.

Happy Father's Day

It is FATHER'S DAY WEEKEND. It is important for FATHERS around the world to teach their children about yard safety. HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!

I want to honor the many fathers around the world.  Also, I want to offer my condolences and sympathies to those individuals and families whose fathers have passed away.

In particular, I want to take a moment and reflect and pay tribute to my dad, Robert N. Mudrinich (December 22, 1930 - November 13, 1995). My dad died November 13, 1995. My dad was the greatest man that I have ever known. He was Christ-like in many ways, and he was very resourceful and patient. He reached out to those less fortunate as well as those more fortunate. He was self-taught on many levels. He was an innovative and inventive genius. My dad really was a super hero. Therefore, it is no wonder that I want to save the world from yard accidents. My dad would have been the biggest fan and ingenious supporter of the Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man yard safety advocacy. Now, my dad lives with Jesus; his body rests in Morefield Cemetery located in Hermitage, Pennsylvania. My dad was a saint. He would have worn a Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man T-Shirt around town with pride until it was threads. In many ways, I do not think that my dad would be surprised by my passion to reach out to other people. He would embrace Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man, while some others think I am just an idiot. I wish that he still lived on Earth. I miss my dad. I really loved my dad. He was a great man. Before I die, I want to ride a lawn mower across America and then continue around the world. I want to be buried in my Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man super hero costume.

In short, I want FATHERS to learn about yard safety. I want MOTHERS to learn about yard safety. I want FAMILIES to learn about yard safety. I want CHILDREN to ask their PARENTS about yard safety. Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man is here today to promote yard safety awareness and rescue individuals, families, and institutions from yard accidents.

Yin and Yang

There is a Yin and Yang with regards to man and machine. Sometimes the machine does work properly and sometimes man does not operate the machine properly. There is a resultant disconnect in the operation and the process breaksdown - sometimes resulting in a severe yard accident.

The Yin-Yang symbol represents the ancient Chinese understanding of how things work. The outer circle represents "everything", while the black and white shapes within the circle represent the interaction of two energies, called "yin" (black) and "yang" (white), which cause everything to happen. They are not completely black or white, just as things in life are not completely black or white. They cannot exist without each other. While "yin" would be dark, passive, downward, cold, contracting, and weak; "yang" would be bright, active, upward, hot, expanding, and strong. The shape of the ying and yang sections of the symbol, actually gives you a sense of the continual movement of these two energies (yin to yang and yang to yin), causing everything to happen: just as things expand and contract, and temperature changes from hot to cold.

Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man believes that the concentration of the power equipment operator wanes with the operator activity leading to poor judgment. Furthermore, Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man recognizes that power equipment manufacturers must seek to continue to improve the safety features of their products and deliver services to the increase safety awareness utilizing various approaches, so that the operator can get the safety message and strive to behave in a manner that minimizes accidents. Furthermore, the merchant who sells the power equipment should have a morale responsibility to educate their customer on how to operate the power equipment in a safe manner and to recognize when not to operate the equipment until the equipment is repaired. Indeed, yard safety requires a collaborative effort throughout the yard product life cycle.

Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man thanks the ancient Chinese philosophy and metaphysics scholars for their discovery of the Yin and Yang concept. It provides yet another consideration toward finding a cure for yard accidents.

Be the machine. Control the machine. Do not let the machine eat you.
